Today, 1 Sale a Day is selling a refurbished Nexus 7 tablet for $140 with free shipping. This is a solid deal, but there are some things you should consider before you buy:

First, the Nexus 7 on sale is a refurb. And there's no information as to who refurbished it. It will come in a brown box, and although the sale page says it has a 90 day warranty, it's not clear who honors it. Second, this is the 8GB model, which is a discontinued version. When the Nexus 7 first came out, the 8GB model cost $200 and the 16GB cost $250. Then, back in October, Asus doubled the storage sizes and killed the 8GB model. That might explain the unusually low price. Finally, the Nexus 7 is nine months old. While there are no reliable rumors about its successor, a new Google Nexus tablet could be announced in the next few months — Google I/O is in May — which would cause old Nexus 7 prices to drop like a stone.

Today's a Great Day To Stock Up on Batteries

Sanyo's Eneloop NiMH rechargeable batteries are great batteries. For folks looking for solid rechargeable batteries, they're an easy recommendation. They hold a charge for a long time and they can be recharged up to 1500 times. Right now at Amazon, an 8-pack is $17.19. These batteries only been priced lower once before. [Amazon]

Remember when iPad Minis hit the Apple Refurb Store? Well, the refurb store just got a bunch of basic WiFi 16GB iPad Minis in stock, which at $300 makes this the least expensive iPad Mini that Apple has ever sold. They'll be sold out soon, so hit it up now if you want one. [Apple]
